Environmental organizations made an appeal to the European Union for the approval of urgent environmental legislation. The request comes following a summer marked by extreme temperatures that reached historic maximum values of heat.
Western Europe experienced the hottest June and July period since records began. This unprecedented heat wave reinforced pressure on European policymakers to act more quickly on environmental matters.
The organizations that signed the request highlighted the need for concrete legislative measures to address the climate crisis. The appeal comes at a time when the effects of climate change are becoming increasingly visible and tangible for the European population.
